By recontextualizing and reintroducing the polyphonic novel as a distinctive, emergent (cf. Williams) genre that mediates the contradictions of neoliberal individualism and its cultural manifestation, postmodernism, this thesis offers a distinctive perspective on cultural diversity and social fragmentation in contemporary Britain and aims to complement aesthetic and postmodernist literary histories that prioritize diversity.", school="Universit{\"a}t Rostock", note="vorgelegt von Emre Ye{\c{s}}ilba{\c{s}}", note="GutachterInnen: Christian Schmitt-Kilb (Institut f{\"u}r Anglistik/Amerikanistik, Universit{\"a}t Rostock) ; Elahe Haschemi Yekani (Institut f{\"u}r Anglistik/Amerikanistik, Humboldt-Universit{\"a}t zu Berlin) ; Dirk Wiemann (Institut f{\"u}r Anglistik/Amerikanistik, Universit{\"a}t Potsdam)", note="Dissertation Universit{\"a}t Rostock 2020", doi="10.18453/rosdok_id00003466", url="http://purl.uni-rostock.de/rosdok/id00003466", url="https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-rosdok_id00003466-2", url="https://d-nb.info/1293536458/34", url="https://doi.org/10.18453/rosdok_id00003466", language="English" }
